Description / Reviews
"Lake's Folly Chardonnay is made from low-yielding, estate-grown fruit which is barrel fermented and aged on yeast lees for eight months in French oak barriques (30–50% new). There is no secondary malolactic fermentation." - Lake's Folly, Winemaker
"Estate grown and made using traditional barrel fermentation, including one-third new French barriques, followed by eight months on lees. A well-balanced, unctuous and luxurious style, decidedly classic in its generosity, with plentiful yellow nectarine flavour and detailed mealy accents. It holds a solid chill beautifully, which tempers the sweet-fruited ending." - 96 Points, Toni Paterson, Halliday Wine Companion
"Bright, medium-full yellow; aromas of cashewnut, Weetbix, nectarine and white peach, palate intense and focused, bright and wonderfully energetic, with piercing flavour augmented by balanced and driving acidity, leaving a clean, dry and appetising finish. Superb full-bodied chardonnay that will be long lived." - 96 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
